If there is low rainfall in a village throughout the year, what measures will you suggest to the farmers for better cropping?

Answers (1)

Low rainfall in a village throughout the year can cause drastic outcomes for farmers and can lead to crop destruction.

The measures farmers can take are:

1. Creating water catchment areas in the farms, so during the rainfall, farmers will be able to hold the water.

2. Using drought-resistant crops such as Pearl millets, chickpea and dryland cereals, so that the crop cycle does not get affected.

3. Use of manure and organic matter to increase the capacity of soil to hold the water for prolonged duration.

4. Use of improved crops with higher adaptability to the environment.
